I'm personally going with MMR GT1's with the OEM 18" 19" staggered sizes. It's a 3-piece "look" style rim but the cost of a 1-piece.

I think I might paint the chrome lip the body color to have it mesh. CrucialCrossifre did it with his rims (not sure what) and his was Aero Blue. Looked really good.

Check Nateswheels on eBay - they sell ADR wheels relatively cheap...almost scary cheap. 4 Wheels for $499 or $599 and they look good. They have several with black spokes chrome surrounds and gray. I think somebody on here has used them too. The price is incredible and the ADR looks legit.

Here a pic of my Aero Blue Roadster, but I don't think these rims are available anymore. Check TireRack.com

I love those wheels! It figures they don't make em anymore.
TBird, just exactly where did you say you park your car while you're at work? I'd really like to get a closer look at them.

+firemx, It's a long drive from Ohio! Lol.

Tirerack does have another style available that is very close to these. I have purchased several sets of rims and tires from them over the years for many different vehicles and they have always been very professional in how they do business.

What, You never heard the saying, "drive a lot, to steal a little"?

I've heard good things about tire rack, and I'm thinking about ordering a set of tires from them for our Honda.
I'll see if I can find those wheels. Thanks.
